Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

Chapter 164: 1992-2020

When Xu Rendong got downstairs, everyone knew that Lian Qiao was awake and came to visit. Seeing that his mental state was okay, he asked him what happened that day.

Lian Qiao held the porridge bowl and did not speak.

Little Apple said: "Is it inconvenient to say?"

Lian Qiao nodded.

Everyone looked at each other. Scarface was not very happy and said, "What's there to hide? What did you encounter? It's a human or a ghost. Tell everyone! What if there are clues?"

Little Apple frowned, wondering why this scarred man is so KY. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Xu Rendong coldly say: "If there are clues, don't be in a hurry. He doesn't want to say that of course he has his reasons." After speaking, he got up to see the guest and said, "Okay, I have seen it, I have seen it. Thank you for him. Please come back."

Everyone had no choice but to leave.

Little Apple has no intention of being a light bulb, but is still a little uneasy. She stood at the door and said hesitantly, "If you need any help from me, just speak up."

"Okay." To Little Apple, Honeysuckle's tone softened. He sincerely thanked, "Thank you."

After Little Apple left, Honeysuckle locked the door, turned around and said to Lian Qiao: "You eat first, I'll read the book later."

Lian Qiao was a little surprised: "Don't you ask me? What happened that day."

Lin Dong smiled: "If necessary, you will tell me." He opened the book and said lightly, "Your life is more important than anything else. I will read the book first."

Lian Qiao looked at his back with a dazed expression.

At this time, Xu Rendong was about seventeen or eighteen years old and had grown very tall. Looking from here, his back is thin and straight, like a new branch drawn in early summer, with a little tenderness in its flexibility, which is his most beautiful age.

His profile face is soft and childish, but his eyebrows have the calm temperament of an adult.

As always.

Lian Qiao looked at him and couldn't help but be mad.

Suddenly, her eyes became hot. Lian Qiao stretched out his hand to wipe it, but the back of his hand was actually wet.

He was in tears.

In fact, when he was in a coma with a high fever, his eyes were already swollen from crying. Lian Qiao rubbed his sore and swollen eyes, pulled the corners of his mouth, and made a smile.

The meaning of that smile is unknown, as if it was mixed with thousands of emotions. Can't tell.

Next day.

No matter how hard Xu Rendong works, the college entrance examination is the college entrance examination after all. The syllabus of the three-year high school exam was not something he could memorize all night long. What's more, during these three days, he was often distracted to take care of Lian Qiao. The review process was delayed again and again, until he entered the examination room, he failed to complete the review.

Fortunately, with the foundation of that year, the final college entrance examination results are not too bad. Although it is far from the standard of the alma mater, it is still much higher than the first line.

Xu Rendong just finished the exam on the front foot, and the back foot was released. In the afternoon, the postman sent the acceptance letter.

The moment the notice was issued, the scene had changed to a university campus—it was so fast that everyone could even change their clothes.

This time the new scene is an entire college campus. It covers a very wide area. There are seven or eight teaching buildings alone, as well as libraries, cafeterias, student activity centers, education supermarkets, and even the back hills, which are very dangerous places.

A dozen players opened their eyes and were stunned by this grand scene.

It was about three in the afternoon, which happened to be the end of get out of class. The college students walked towards the dormitory building in groups of three or two, holding their books. The sound of laughter and laughter was full of youthfulness, which made these players with an average age of 30 feel ashamed. They only felt that they were old uncles and aunts.

Humans are strange. When facing elementary school students and junior high school students, I can calmly call myself an elder; but when facing college students who are only seven or eight years younger than me, I feel strongly that I am old.

Xu Rendong was eighteen years old at this time. Compared with yesterday, the facial features are a bit longer.

Standing under the shade of the camphor tree, he opened the admission letter sent by the courier to confirm his dormitory location.

He is so good-looking, but standing with his head bowed like that, attracted the attention of passing girls. The eyebrows are like the mountains in the distance, and the eyes are like the waves of autumn water. His focus is so charming - just because he is focused on other things, he can easily be envied, and he can't help crying in his heart:

Look at me, look at me.

However, he was unaware of it, still doing his own thing, immersed in a person's world.

Like a priest sitting alone among the roses with a Bible in his hand, the world is nothing but holy, nothing can enter his eyes, and no evil can get close to him.

Lian Qiao stared at him, and a strange color gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Honeysuckle." He suddenly called out.

"Huh?" Xu Rendong raised his eyes, and his black and white eyes looked over, like cold stars, like pearls, like white mercury, with two pills of black mercury.

Lian Qiao was just stared at by those eyes, and throbbed: "...Nothing. Just calling you."

Ren Dong was not annoyed, but smiled slightly, lowered her head, and continued to look through his admission notice.

The people on the side were still observing the surrounding environment, unaware of the dark feelings between the two. Only Little Apple, his eyes fell on Lian Qiao, and there seemed to be a wry smile in his eyes.

"I found it. My dormitory is in ... Building 2." Ren Dong found an access card from the courier bag, "The dormitory number is 602, and it says go to the dormitory management station to find the aunt to get the key. ."

Everyone consciously stopped the students to ask for directions, looking for the location of the second building. The group went to the dormitory in a mighty way, just like the hope of the villagers and elders to **** the whole village attentively.

Lian Qiao looked at it, and there was a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, everyone was stopped at the door of the dormitory management station.

"What are you guys doing here?" The auntie raised her eyebrows and looked bad.

Everyone explained that they were sending students to school, and the dormitory aunt glanced at everyone suspiciously: "Only one parent is allowed to enter the dormitory when sending freshmen to school. Who is his parent?"

Everyone: "..." Although everyone is no longer young, no one is willing to admit who is old enough to pretend to be Xu Rendong's parent.

At this time, Lian Qiao stepped forward without hesitation.

"His parents are not here." Lian Qiao called out to his aunt, obedient and sweet, "I'm his brother, I'll take him up. Others won't go in, just here Wait. Auntie, do you think so?"

Lian Qiao was born with a baby face, and the clear and watery deer eyes blinked, and immediately won the favor of the dormitory aunt. The dormitory aunt stepped aside and let go. As for the remaining people, they could only stand at the door of the dormitory management station and look at each other, smiling bitterly and speechless.

The dormitory is on the sixth floor. There is no elevator and it is a bit tiring to climb up. The two pushed open the door and saw the upper and lower bunks inside. The four beds are still empty, and none of the roommates have come yet.

Lian Qiao tutted, "I knew I was your roommate."

"What are you thinking." Ren Dong smiled and shook the dormitory card in front of him, "This has my identity information on it. Since there is such a thing, it means that the dormitory building needs authentication before entering. , how is it possible for you to come in casually? What's more, even if you sneak in, if you don't leave at the specified time, it may trigger the death condition."

Then open arms towards Honeysuckle.

"Hug." He coquettishly.

Xu Rendong came over and hugged him.

Lian Joe put his head on his shoulder and rubbed the tip of his nose against his nose. His eyes turned red again.

"I miss you so much." The voice was nasal.

Xu Rendong was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted. He was probably talking about the three days he was in a coma, and he didn't see each other for a day, like every three autumns. He wrapped his arms around him and said softly, "I miss you too."

Lian Qiao sighed softly. He smiled and took a deep breath.

"You've finally grown up." He sniffed the warm breath of the honeysuckle's neck, his eyes brightened, "Can we do something adult?"

Xu Rendong blushed and whispered, "Don't be here, someone will come."

Lian Qiao locked the door with his backhand: "This way there will be no more."

"..." Honeysuckle turned her face away, her slightly red ears were completely exposed in Lian Qiao's eyes, and hooked people unconsciously, "Don't...they are still waiting outside..."

"Let them wait." Lian Qiao stroked his earlobe fascinatedly and kissed it lightly, "We need time to organize, organize, house, and serve."

Dormitory downstairs.

The weather in early autumn was still very hot, and the sun shone down through the gaps in the leaves, which soon caused everyone to sweat profusely.

The scarred man gritted his teeth: "What are they doing upstairs? Why haven't they come down?"

Little Apple said: "Maybe he is exploring new areas."

Everyone said: "Then let's explore too." "Yes, this time the scene is so big, maybe the elevator is here, you have to look for it!" "Speaking of which, how should the button be? Come on, we don't have a clue now..."

It's still far from dark, the sun is shining, and the ghosts don't dare to come out and harm people. So everyone in two groups, each separately explored the campus.

Little Apple and a monk are assigned to the library. The monk's character is straight and straight, and his speech is always choking. In the entire team, Xiao Apple had a decent relationship with him. So the two were assigned together without a doubt.

However, just after the two turned around, the long-haired aunt quietly winked at everyone. Everyone understood, and while confirming whether the two had turned back, they followed the long-haired aunt quietly.

Ten minutes later, everyone came to the gymnasium opposite the library. It was only after I came in that I found that it was crowded with people. It turned out that today was the first day of school, and freshmen had to come to pick up books and bedding.

Fortunately, many people were coming and going at the moment, most of them were parents of students, so this group of older people who were obviously not students did not attract attention and smoothly entered the depths of the gymnasium.

Everyone found an empty room, went in, locked the door discreetly, and sat down in a circle.

"Speak, let us come to discuss what?" The scarred man took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it with a click.

The long-haired aunt said kindly: "No smoking in the gym, stop smoking. If the smoke detector is triggered, it will be troublesome."

"Then I'll be straight." The long-haired aunt smiled and turned to look at everyone, "Today I invite everyone to discuss the most important issue, and that is—what will happen in 2020? One day, are we going to move?"

Everyone was silent for a while, and no one spoke.

The long-haired aunt said: "Everyone is not a novice. This dungeon is called 1992-2020, which corresponds to the key player Xu Rendong. There is no doubt about this. The problem is that Xu Rendong is growing up day by day. , what will happen when he turns 28? Will elevators and buttons appear out of thin air?" She smiled wryly and shook her head, "I don't think it's such a good thing, right?"

"Okay, don't go around the corner." The scarred man had the worst temper and interrupted her impatiently, "We all want this, you just want to kill him, right?"

The long-haired aunt stared at him, her normally gentle eyes suddenly sharpened.

"I'm sorry." She said slowly, "I hope you figure out one thing. It's not that I want to kill him, it's that we have to kill him in order to escape. he."

Someone interjected: "Why do you have to kill him? The copy has no grudge against him, so why let him target him in public?"

Someone said: "I'm thinking about this too. This time the dungeon is too direct, it might be a trap. What if we guessed wrong?"

After all, the old players are not as brainless as the newcomers, and they also have a certain understanding of the urine of the copy. There was a lot of discussion, and everyone had their own ideas about the customs clearance conditions. The long-haired aunt coughed lightly, lowered her eyes and said, "No matter what, he is a key player after all. The key players have some special clues in their hands, and he can't take the initiative to tell them anyway... In short, kill the key players, In the end, the pros outweigh the cons.”

As soon as she said this, those who understood it immediately understood.

Kill key players in the dungeon to imprison the opponent's soul and get a avatar. Even if Xu Rendong did not brush out the elevator and buttons after his death, at least one puppet would be dropped.

The preciousness of dolls is self-evident. The old players who knew the existence of the doll all lowered their eyes in tacit understanding, for fear of being seen through by others.

As for those uninformed players, they interpret the so-called "pros outweigh the cons" as torture to extract Xu Rendong's confession and ask him to give special clues.

The long-haired aunt said this very skillfully, not exposing the existence of the doll, and bewitching everyone.

Everyone bowed their heads and fell into deep thought.

Although they never knew Xu Rendong, they watched him grow up these days. Seeing that he had grown from a baby in his arms to a young man with a zhilan and jade tree, at this time they wanted them to kill him, and he was a little bit concerned.

But - strangers are strangers after all. No matter how good you feel towards strangers, it is not as important as your own life.

The reminder of the copy has been very clear, Xu Rendong's life will come to an abrupt end at the age of 28. It's a requirement for copies, and they don't want to.

It's not that they are targeting Xu Rendong, it's really Xu Rendong's bad luck - who made him a key player?

Therefore, everyone quickly passed the vote and agreed with the proposal of the long-haired aunt.

"However, can we really kill them?" Someone said, "Let's not mention that Lian Qiao, Xu Rendong himself has passed through several levels. The two of them joined forces, and we alone A few are hard to come by, right?"

"Yes, there are also monks and apples. They have a good relationship with them, and they probably won't agree..."

The long-haired aunt smiled: "That's why I called everyone today. We can..."

Everyone couldn't help but come over and listen to the plan of the long-haired aunt.

On the other side, the library.

"How come this little apple has been gone for so long..." The monk sat on the steps in front of the library with a piece of baked gluten in his mouth.

His shiny bald head caught the attention of all college students. Everyone walked past him and couldn't help but look at him more. The monk stopped someone with a smile and asked, "Hey, classmate, how can I get to the gymnasium?"

The student showed him the way and asked in surprise, "What are you doing in the gym?"

"Isn't this heard that the freshmen start school, and the essentials are covered with books." The monk put his hands together, his expression a little embarrassed, "Amitabha, the poor monk just remembered that our monks don't lie, their female benefactors are Yes. She said 'no', it shouldn't really be necessary... sin sin, Amitabha."

Student: "..." So did you really let the female donor carry the books and bedding alone?

You are a straight man.
